I’ve been following your blog for the past year and I think this particular picture clearly captures the essence of the modern woman to me. Attitude, style and culture is somehow glowing from this young lady. I’m wondering what she does for a living and how un-serious she actually is?….

YES! i love this. she looks so fantastic. love the blue and black, love the puffed sleeves – totally elevates this outfit. this is diy high fashion. so much more inventive than just going to h&m for a cheaper version. even if the pieces are h&m, she is really doing her own thing with them.

I’m loving the overall look of this, high-waisted skirt, awesome glasses, etc. But look a little closer and the skirt is actually…a dress. Too diy for my taste. Not a big fan of the blue and black combo here either. But wonderful proportions!
